No, the tomatoes above weren't Photoshopped, but rather are a new variety dubbed "Indigo Rose" - a cross-breed between red and purple tomatoes. As you can see, the fruit is jet black on the outside and purple-red on the inside. These are supposedly more rich in antioxidants than their red counterpart. They were first bred by Jim Myers, a professor at the University of Oregon, during a graduate study about the health benefits of tomatoes.

This parasitic plant has no visible leaves, roots, or stem. When in full-bloom, this flower emits a repulsive odor, similar to that of rotting meat, which attracts insects that are used for pollination.

Bismuth compounds account for about half the production of bismuth. They are used in cosmetics, pigments, and a few pharmaceuticals, notably Pepto-Bismol. Bismuth's unusual propensity to expand upon freezing is responsible for some of its uses, such as in casting of printing type. Bismuth has unusually low toxicity for a heavy metal.
